You will receive 25 bulbs.  This plant is very easy to grow and it multiplies  pretty quick. The leaves open in the morning and close at night which is very cool to watch. 

Purple Shamrock plants have purple, triangular leaflets that open during the day close and close at night, and abundance of light pink flowers. They make a nice houseplant or can be grown in the garden for a splash of color. 

I grow mine indoors and outdoors but I always bring them inside for the Winter.

They are  very easy to grow and prefer light shade, and moist but well-drained soil. If you don't forget to water them they will flourish.  After they are done blooming or bit overgrown I just cut everything down to about half of an inch above the soil and let them start over, and they do. You can take them out of the pot and divide them into 2 or 3 new plants or as many as you wish when they seem to be overgrown. 

                                 HOW TO GROW SHAMROCK   

To grow shamrocks, place up to five bulbs in an 8” pot to create a houseplant, or tamp the bulbs into the soil outdoors, spaced 3” apart and 1 to 2” inches deep. Water the soil well, but make sure it drains adequately, as too much moisture can cause the roots to rot. Leaves should appear in 10 days and you can expect to see flowers within 10 weeks.

When watering your shamrock, keep the soil barely moist, and allow the top inch of soil to dry before the next watering. Use a houseplant fertilizer mixture every two to four weeks to maintain the plant’s overall health.

Like other plants grown from bulbs, the purple shamrock requires one or more “rest periods,” particularly during autumn. If your plant looks “tired” after it blossoms, stop watering it and let it go dormant for approximately one month, then fertilize and water as usual once it rejuvenates.
